Title: D1 in russian (release)
Post by: MidiV on December 12, 2013, 10:44:54 PM
 Hello from Russian Descent Outpost!  8)

This info may be interesting for russian-speaking fans.
I would like to proudly announce russian version of Descent 1 that has been released recently!

It's available in two versions:
D1 for DOS (based on original .exe v1.5) and modified D1X-Rebirth 0.58.1 (Windows build).
Archives are available here: http://www.descent2.ru/descent/fajly-resursy.html (http://www.descent2.ru/descent/fajly-resursy.html) (in russian language!)

Archives contain only modified resources so full version of Descent 1 is required.

Rebirth note: it's separate pack, do not install into the same folder with english version of D1X-Rebirth.

Here are some screenshots:

Nice to see such support from the fans around the world to my favorite game ever!  ;D

That's a great addition for the Descent community, I'm pretty sure a lot of Russian players will be very grateful!
Nice job!  8)

Не плохо! Я люблю!

Love the Cyrillic Descent letters!

So, "Ракета" means "rocket" (missle), right? Isn't Ракета a brand of 24-hour dial watch? I have one but it's a полярные.

Thanks for sharing! No, I don't speak русский, but I am learning slowly. :)

Thanks for positive comments!
Yes, 'Ракета' means "missile, rocket". And yes, 'Ракета' is a brand of watches, manufactured by oldest watch factory in Russia.

Very cool, might download it just for the cool factor. I can't read Russian, but after playing Descent for so long, who needs to?  8)

Is there any way to replace "LOCK" indicator in the cockpit graphic with the Russian translation?

I decided not to modify any graphics except fonts - that was a main idea of this 'project'.
So, currently, answer is no.
